Quilt #3

 This log cabin quilt, with stair steps grew on my design wall slowly over about three months.  But it's done now and I'm very happy with the colors.  I always love log cabins and when they're just a little different that's all the better.

A friend sent a vintage-y quilt magazine (maybe from the '50s) which had a picture of a traditional dark and light log cabin with red stairs steps.  I loved it but I've been making black and white and red quilts for a while -- I have one ready to be quilted right now -- so I wanted different colors.  I think I have a home for this quilt -- as a hostess gift in the near future.
